🧂 Ingredients

For the Wings

• 3–4 lbs chicken wings, flats and drumettes

• 2–3 tbsp Lazy Lightning seasoning by AlcheMeats

• 2 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil

• 2 tbsp baking powder (optional for extra crispiness)

For the Spicy Blueberry Glaze

• 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen blueberries

• ¼ cup honey

• 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

• 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional for extra heat)

• Pinch of salt

🔥 Directions

1. Prep the Wings

1. Pat wings dry thoroughly with paper towels — crispy wings start here.

2. Toss wings in oil, then season generously with Lazy Lightning.

3. Arrange on wire racks in a single layer and let rest for 20–30 minutes to allow the seasoning to adhere.

2. Fire Up the Traeger

1. Place wire racks directly on cold smoker grates.

2. Close the lid and set smoker to 400°F.

3. Cook for 60 minutes, or until wings reach an internal temperature of 165°F.

4. Remove from smoker and let rest 10 minutes before glazing.

3. Make the Spicy Blueberry Glaze

1. In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, honey, vinegar, Worcestershire, garlic, salt, and red pepper flakes.

2. Simmer over medium heat for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until blueberries burst and the sauce thickens.

3. Blend using an immersion blender for a smooth glaze or mash with a fork for a chunkier texture.

4. Taste and adjust with more honey, salt, or Worcestershire if desired.

4. Finish the Wings

1. Toss the wings in the glaze for an even coat or brush it on for a glossy presentation.

2. Serve with extra glaze on the side for dipping.

💡 Pro Tip

If you prefer an extra-crispy skin, let wings air-dry on a wire rack in the refrigerator overnight or for at least an hour before seasoning. This helps remove moisture for that perfect crunch once smoked.
